At the heart of this architectural masterpiece lies DecoBatten®, seamlessly blending functionality with aesthetics. The meticulously crafted DecoBatten® Radius aluminium battens adorn both the interior soffit and exterior facade, with the creative design and application creating a spectacular interplay of light and shadow thanks to the purposely positioned holes in the design's exposed bases. Hand-cut to varying lengths and meticulously powder-coated in Manor Red, inspired by the region's rich wine heritage, DecoBatten® elevates the building's charm while seamlessly harmonising with the surrounding sandstone structures.
